User Management – Schedule

User Management section in the PRC Schedule Simulator can be viewed only by those users who have either Read/Write or View Only Access.  Users with only Read/Write access can create a new user, edit users, add a project for a selected user, delete a user, un-assign a project to a user, and change the access privileges of users.

Users designated with View Only Access may view specific pages, select a user, view user details and view projects assigned.  Access to editing functions is not available to these users.
